CYBER SECURITY - SAFEGUARDING YOUR IT ENVIRONMENT:
A DIAGNOSTIC APPROACH
November 14-16, 2017
WHY YOU SHOULD ATTEND:
Every institution - public or private - continues to worry
about the continuing threat of cyber-attacks, IT system
breaches and similar incidents on their business systems.
In many cases, Management is left without a clear
understanding of the underlying issues and potential
solution paths available.
The risk of immobilization, damage and/ or loss of
data, information, funds, resources and system
availability is one consequence that every institution
would wish to minimize, if not eliminate.
WORKSHOP FOCUS:
The workshop will focus on creating a crisp understanding,
in plain language, of the nuances and issues associated
with dealing with corporate cyber security matters that
would facilitate the safeguarding of the institution's IT
environment.
It would focus on exploring core issues relating to Cyber
Security, the IT environment, how the IT System is
breached, the IT Systems Structures, the System Protection
Basics, Risk-Based Approach to business, IT Audit, IT
Governance, the imperatives of Management, General Staff
as well as the Auditor's Responsibility towards mitigating
any risk of financial loss, disruption or damage to the
reputation of an institution that could result from the
(potential or likely) failure of its information
technology systems.

EFFECTIVE MANAGEMENT REVIEW & AUDIT OF THE
PROCUREMENT, LOGISTICS & SUPPLY CHAIN RELATED FUNCTIONS
November 21-22, 2017
WHY YOU SHOULD ATTEND:
At one time or the other, organisations procure goods,
services, works, manage inventory and support services,
move or have materials carried to and from their working
areas in support of their operations.
Mostly, the entire framework, under which these
activities are carried-out, is not given the required
review attention.
Fears of corruption, fraud, quality, maintenance
and absence of total cost benefit continue to plague
organisations.
Today, the biggest source of governance worry next
to leadership is procurement-related.
With costs rising on a daily basis, the need for
full reflection and introspection should not be treated
optional but an absolute imperative.
WORKSHOP FOCUS:
This workshop will focus on the review and audit of
Corporate Value Assessment, Strategic Procurement
Planning, Vendor/Client Management Systems, The Bidding
Process, Contracts and Award System, Implementation and
Delivery Systems, Stores and Warehousing, Shipping and
Logistics, Fraud, Corruption and Procurement Red-Herrings,
Material Usage and Requisition, Obsolescence and Expired
Materials Management, Surplus Disposal, Scrap Declaration
and Management.
It will also explore avenues, with a view of
disabling fraudster capabilities, under which fraudsters
exploit legislation and any inherent loopholes to their
benefit at great cost to institutional development and
progress.
WHO
SHOULD ATTEND?
Board Audit & Risk Committee Members, CEOs & other
Management Staff, Entity Tender Committee Members,
Internal Auditors, Procurement, Logistics & Supply Chain
Staff, Administrators, Financial Controllers &
Accountants, Management & Staff involved or interested in
the renaissance of their Procurement, Logistic & Supply
Chain related functions
